The latest eBikes for 2020 are arriving all the time form top manufacturers, there's never been a better time to pop in and take a look if you are thinking of updating, trading up or buying an eBike as a festive gift.
Manufacturers have all released their 2020 ranges early this season and human nature is to want the latest so pre-orders are at a record high. Luckily we got in early for the bikes that we think will be popular here. That means we have some real new bikes, not just promises.
Now newer isn’t always better but I am pleasantly surprised by the look and feel of the new season’s bikes.
So, what's new? Well, Bosch has brought out two new motors for 2020 and a bigger 625Wh battery pushing the range into the hundreds of miles! (Further extensions also possible now using dual technology).
The most significant change is the new CX motor, it’s quieter and lighter and now has a freewheel so you don’t have to turn the motor over when it cuts-out - you are really just pedalling a normal bike.
Bikes are a bit lighter and new models (not here yet) have a new super-light motor and battery system from Fazua, now bringing our lightest e-bike down to only 13.5Kg.
Not to be left out Shimano have a new motor to compliment it’s excellent existing ones and the fully automatic motor and gears system Di2 is likely to be very popular as more and more people are returning to cycling for fitness fun and financial reasons but don’t want to be caught out by re-learning how to change gears!
